OS X :: Mouse Tracking Response Not Smooth?

Dec 6, 2009

Just bought my first mac today. It's a 2.8Ghz macbook pro 15"

This is the "problem" I'm having:

I connected an external mouse (logitech) to my computer, and went into system preferences and set tracking speed to max. The response I get from the mouse is still a bit slow for my liking in Mac OS X.

Also the really annoying bit is that when I move my external mouse slowly, the tracking is extremely slow.

When I boot into windows 7 (via bootcamp), the tracking is just perfect.

I guess external mouse tracking in Mac OS X is not "windows like"?? Is there a way to fix this?

IMac :: 3-5 Second Response Delay Of Mouse Or Cursor?

Oct 18, 2008

This Imac 7.1 2ghz, 20" is less than a year old. I switched because it promised friendlier functioning especially for my wife. I use Parallels for XP/Quicken only. What drives me crazy is a 2-5 second delay for almost anything I do: scroll, copy, move cursor, any art or photo ops and TYPing. I read all the things to reduce the Pinwheel and did them. Finally I added 2 more Gigs of memory (total 4) and it made no difference. Activity monitor shows tons of free memory.

I cannot believe that I use my tiny Asus to type most of my stuff now because on the iMac I can type something then in the middle of a word, count 'one thousand 1-3 then sometimes get a pinwheel for 2 counts and it resumes typing. It does not seem to matter much if I close everything else (wow that eliminates all that handy windows stuff Apple is famous for).

MacBook Pro :: GBP Keeps Pausing/delaying Response?

Jul 20, 2009

I have a new MBP 2.53+4gb and it constantly is pausing. Even as I type this after 10 words I have to wait a few seconds for the next 5 to show up. If I'm scrolling it'll just stop scrolling and then jump half the page. I'm not using up too many resources as I'm only using firefox/aim/email. But the pausing occurs whether I'm just reading the news or using photoshop.

(Also about a month ago my hard drive crashed and I returned my computer to apple where they installed a new hard drive and OS.)

So my question is: Is this a common issue that has been addressed and fixable? If so please direct me. If not, is there anything I can try before taking it back to the Apple store...again?

MacBook Pro :: I7 Crashing And Slow Response?

May 26, 2010

so I'm wondering if my i7 macbook pro is going to need to go in. I'm having constant freezes and forcing me to force quit programs and even plugging in external speakers there is a good 45 second delay between connection and everything working. Also the volume and brightness control constantly are lagging when I try to use them. Does this sound like the tradtional freezing problem?

MacBook :: Getting No Response From Audio Line In Port

Dec 6, 2009

I very confused about my line in port. I'm trying to hook my macbook up to my 4 channel PA using a 1/8" input jack, I am using garageband, but I get no response. the driver is switched to built in line in port but still nothing. I find that when I unplug it a little bit, the computer picks up the sound but there is a strange fuzz sound that accompanies it. So basically, the input does not work when I plug it in all the way. I know it worked before, perhaps I blew the input?

MacBook Pro :: X Over Battery Symbol - No Response From SMC Reset

Jun 26, 2014

So last Sunday morning I was playing Xbox while having my MacBook playing music from iTunes.  I unplugged the charger at about 30% battery life left and let it run pretty low (%3) when I grabbed my charger to plug it in and the light wouldn't come on.  I tried numerous plug ins throughout the house that all worked and still no light.  (Keep in mind that I live nowhere close to a Mac store, or even a computer shop that sells or knows anything about Macs)  So later Sunday night I purchased an Apple charger which I received today (Thursday).  So I plugged it in and it only shows a green light and I thought that was weird because the battery is dead. 

I turn the computer on and I saw an "x" over the battery usually where it shows the charge or if it's charging.  When I click on it it reads "No Battery Available"  and then says under that "Power Source: Power Adapter".  So I did a little research on the forums, google, and YouTube where it seemed the only response was doing an SMC reset.  So I did that and held down for 20 seconds, started computer and it was the same.  I also had it turned off and let it sit on the charger because I read that could possibly work, and it didn't.  If I unplug the power adapter it just shuts the computer off.  I just got this battery replaced 2-3 weeks ago from Apple and everything was fine.

MacBook Pro :: Setting Keyboard Sensitivity - Lack Of Response

Nov 7, 2010

I had a look today at various models of the MBP, I must say I like everything about them except the keyboard, to touch type on it, it feels very cheap, very "lack of response". I am a fast touch typist, and I am used to bashing out 60+ wpm, however I found on all the models I tired, 13,15 and 17 the keyboard is all much of a much. I found typing fast that characters don't appear on the screen.

I assume somewhere in the options there are settings to change the keyboard sensitivity? That's really the only thing putting me off buying one, well apart from also deciding what screen size to get. Portability vs. Screen Size. I wish Apple offered an i7 version of the 13" MBP, that would make the choice easy.

MacBook :: System Slow Response After Upgrading To Leopard

Jul 15, 2009

Bought my Macbook almost 3 years ago and it worked brilliantly but recently (after upgrading to Leopard?) I have become painfully familiar with the beach ball. Before it was blazing-fast. Now it always seems about two steps behind my brain. And that's really slow.

MacBook Pro :: Cursor Jumps Around Randomly / Can't Get Any Response From Trackpad

Apr 20, 2012

The trackpad/cursor on my Macbook Pro vs10.6.8 acts stangely. Sometime the cursor jumps around randomly and can't get any response from the trackpad. The condition is getting worse and has about made the trackpad useless. I have tried using as wireless mouse and have had no problems whatsoever, which leads me to believe the problem is in fact in the trackpad/cursor; either the hardware or softeare associated with same.

MacBook Pro :: No Response In Address Book While Running Lion?

Apr 24, 2012

In Address Book, cursor didn't click in search field. I plugged a mouse in to check if it's the mouse pad. No change. Quit and restarted address book so I can now type in the search field but it still won't navigate to the name I type in. Nor does it respond once I scroll down to the card I want and click on the name.

Mac :: Aluminium Macbook, Memory, Heat, Speed, Response Time Options?

Apr 29, 2009

I have got the 2.4ghz aluminium macbook, and I upgraded the ram to 4GB about a 2 months back. I have always felt that my macbook is slower now than before the upgrade(which is strange), but recently the situation became worst. My macbook would randomly heats up very quickly, iStats pro would show me that i only have 1-10MB of free memory, my fan would be running on 6200rpm. response rate would be much slower, and circle of rainbow also occurs much more often.I get panic whenever this happens(i have only got my macbook for 5-months), so when that happens i usually try to quit those application that i am not using like mail, safari, iwork 09 and etc. It didn't really help much(or maybe not at all) until at some point(around about 30-45mins) the systems automatically cools down, reduce fan speed and etc but similar problem would happen again in 30mins.

Hardware :: Slow Printer Response On Mac OS X 10.5.3

Jun 11, 2008

I have a HP Business Inkjet 2800 (no attachments or upgrades) and it works fine on Windows through Bootcamp, but is painfully slow on Mac OS X (10.5.3.) I've always had a problem with Macs and HP printers, but this has become ridiculous.

I have the latest drivers installed, but it can take over 14 hours to begin printing a single image, only about 15-30 minutes for text only. I don't print anything with more than 1 image from OS X anymore. I even tried using a shorter (4 ft.) USB cable.

OS X :: Reasons For Keyboard And Trackpad No Response?

Mar 25, 2009

I was just chatting with a friend on iChat and my keyboard and trackpad became completely unresponsive. I had sent a message to him, then went to reply to his response and there was just nothing there as far as input was concerned, both were completely unresponsive.

The only other running apps at the time were Mail.app and FontExplorer X Pro (which is always open for me, much like finder). Anyone have any notions why something like this would happen. In 6 years of Mac portable use (powerbooks and Macbook Pros), I've never had this happen to me. I had to hold the power button for 5 seconds to shut the computer down.

Final Cut Pro X :: No Response When Trying To Export Project

Sep 4, 2014

Just updated to Mavericks. Everything worked fine before then.

So I finished my project , go to export, and no response. When I try and export to vimeo or you tube I get this error -

"The operation couldn’t be completed. (com.apple.Compressor.CompressorKit.ErrorDomain error -1.)"

Its not a camera import issue. I actually made another project with clips that I know to have exported, with no problem. And again, there is no response when I  export project. 

And I can't uninstall fcpx because I have clips saved to the program. And hard drive is dead.

Applications :: Office For Mac 2011 - Positive Response

Sep 23, 2010

I've got the pleasure to get my hands on the retail version of Office 2011. Yes, it's the retail version, not beta. I know it's not being released for another month. I haven't had much time to play around with it as I got it today but so far, the experience has been nothing more but positive. The apps feel very responsive. Actually, it feels like I'm using Office in Windows Outlook seems to be pretty equal to the Windows version. I don't know what to test so please ask if you have anything on your mind that I could try. I've included a screenshot of every app, feel free to take a look!

OS X :: AFP Connection Response Time Extremely Slow

Aug 12, 2010

I'm running Snow Leopard on a Mac Pro. I often connect to a Linux server sitting at the office through afp. It connects fine, but very quickly the response time of the folders becomes extremely slow. Granted there are fire walls and network magic and whatnot between here and that server that don't exist inside the network at the office. But I feel as if this is a more recent phenomena. Connections in this way have been a little sluggish in the past, but now it's consistently unbearable--beach balls and unresponsive Finder windows. I have an internal RAID pair, and extra drives, and shared connections all talking to this machine.

Which clearly causes the occasional "hiccup" in the system. Like sometimes I wait for folders to load, or like VMWare pausing for a few seconds when trying to access some of the Mac drives. But, for the most part, the system works fast and fine. I've tried to watch the Activity Monitor while accessing the Finder windows on the server. And, all that I've learned is that FireFox is big resource hog, and that Finder barely registers any CPU effort when I click into those drives. Speakeasy tells me I'm getting around 14 Mbps for network speed. The server itself seems to be running fine (according to top and snappy terminal responses). [URL]
